I hate the way the world is now, it's gone well too far the other way and this type of shit is an example. Hopefully the FA see sense and just ignore this and realise people change from how they were aged 15.

Can't go a day without seeing some sort of faux outrage over something.

The thing is tho - it hasn’t hasnt gone too far the other way, there are still people being discriminated against daily for being black, or gay, or a woman.

However as you say the profligacy of faux outrage is diluting it to the point were people do genuinely believe racism doesn’t exist or that women ‘have it better’ or whatever. Harmful, damaging stuff.

End of the day nobody is offended by this, it’s literally football twitter grasses.

I knew that someday I was going to die, and I knew that before I died, two things would happen to me. That number one; I would regret my entire life, and number two; that I would want to live my life over again.

To be fair, society is more accepting of that motto now than it ever has been in my opinion.

I like you though so don't want this to turn into anything ugly!

This has nothing to do with left or right. It's just the tribalism nature of football, I think most can see the comments from Holgate and Robertson aren't really malicious. God knows what I was posting on social media 10 years ago!

Not in the mood to fight you over it, I'd definitely lose, but it seems to me almost everything you say nowadays can be misconstrued. Hate this Facebook, twitter thing where people can be insulted, bullied and ganged up on just because one person doesn't like it and can use it against you for likes to try and make the sad Bastard look / popular. People nowadays seem a lot less tolerant and patient with each other in these times, awful the amount of relationships that break up, leaving one parent families it's a living timebomb for the future. Think I've rambled on to long here.

Kopites completely unable to comprehend that just because you can't prove it doesn't mean it didnt happen, when its exactly the same thing they've been levelling at their mates when they call shenanighans against claims they touched a living female.
